Colorado College has been awarded a second State Historical Fund grant in the amount of $133,800 to continue the challenging exterior stone and wood trim restoration of Arthur House, 1106 N. Nevada Ave. The restoration of the wraparound porch was completed last summer, thanks to the first grant award of $115,000. An ADA ramp also was incorporated, using ADA improvement funds.
This new grant brings Colorado College’s State Historical Fund preservation grant awards to a total of $1,765,012. The college has received 18 grant awards since its initial 1993 historic property survey.
